01:30Let's begin with eligibility changes for UK Dependent Visas
01:37Starting July 22nd, 2025
01:40Only skilled workers in degree level RQF level 6 and above roles can bring dependents to the UK
01:48If your job or qualification is below this level, dependents are no longer eligible
01:54This update aligns with the UK's focus on high skilled migration
01:59Next, we explore the new occupation list degree versus medium skilled jobs
02:13The official UK site now lists occupations by skill level
02:17Only jobs labelled highly skilled permit dependent visas
02:21Medium skilled roles like care workers SOC 6131 are excluded
02:27Meaning new applicants in these roles cannot bring dependents
02:35Moving on to key deadlines and exemptions
02:41If your certificate of sponsorship was issued before July 22nd, 2025
02:47You have a 90-day window to submit dependent applications
02:51Even for medium skilled roles
02:53Existing skilled workers and their dependents already in the UK remain unaffected when applying for extensions
03:05Then we examine the dependent rules for babies born in the UK
03:11Babies born in the UK to skilled workers can get visas
03:15But those who arrived from abroad with parents in now ineligible roles cannot
03:21There are specific exceptions for single parents
03:25Finally, we wrap up with the conclusion
03:31The UK's latest immigration rules make dependent eligibility much stricter for new skilled worker applicants in medium skilled occupations
